📝 Preparation Steps
1
Add the velveting ingredients to a large freezer bag or bowl; whisk to combine. Add chicken and turn until evenly coated. Let sit at room temperature while you prep your veggies; preferable ⏱️ 30 minutes (no more).
2
Meanwhile, whisk Stir Fry Sauce ingredients together in a medium bowl; set aside.
3
Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.* Once very hot, add chicken in a single layer and cook until golden; flip chicken over and cook an additional ⏱️ 2 minutes, until browned on all sides (does not need to be cooked through). Remove chicken to a plate.

4
To the now empty pan (don’t wipe out), heat one tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Add broccoli, carrots, mushrooms, bell peppers and onions. Stir fry until vegetables are crisp tender, about ⏱️ 3 minutes. (Don’t over-cook because they will continue to cook in sauce). Add garlic and ginger to the veggies and sauté ⏱️ 30 seconds.
